JANUARY gives time for reflection, and our Father

gives the earth time to increase and man the strength

to labor, sow and reap the benefits of his worksj so that

he that cultivates the soil successfully does more than he

that commands armies- Meditate, then, In this month,

what will increase grain, fruit and home made wares the

coming year. Wise is that wise does.

JUNE is a season of beauty; dress the gardens, weed

the corn, sow turnips

and roota baga, buckwheat and late

corn for fodder may

flai>h thi:- farmer's vegetable cata-

logue of summer truck. A well cultivated country shows

the marks of civilization as much as church steeples,

courthouse domes and iron eyes. Grace and grain gain

glory.

for ITaying and Harvest; the season to secure plenty
for the use of prosperity. The fanner's "penny saved,"

Prudence and care save foriuaes. Wisdom whlfpcrs,.

OCTOBER, is nearly the end of annual outfitting.
Fruit, grain, meat, sauce, wood and clothes, with a re-
ceint from the Tithing oflioe, ought to be in their proper
place, ready for the cool head of winter, that often tries
the recess of a stone.

Pleasure is good, but plenty is better; and so h3 that
k?eppth the commandmeDts of the Lord is blessed.

the year's concerns. Blessed Is he that can say: — "Thy
servant is ready; with the five talents thou lentest me, I
have made ten." So it seems the earth hath done her
part; the Lord Tlis; and happy is he that responds and "I
mine" — ready for a new yeab.

New motto: — Time is never tight.
